It only shows cancelled when you have the whole series set to record and you cancel an episode.
No, you will see "Cancelled Recording" any time that you cancel any recording. Just tested and confirmed this by scheduling and cancelling the recording of an upcoming movie. You also see the 🚫 symbol in the Guide.

1. I have a block of my chosen channels that I can't add to my Favourites section
2. It would be nice if sports channels or news channels or lifestyle channels were lumped together
3. I'd like to see a list of all the programs that I've set for repeated recording so that when a series is cancelled.
1. Don't see why not. I was able to add any of the channels I subscribe to to my favourites.
2. They are to some extent. Not in channels 1-100 because those are kept there for "seniors", however, in the higher channels a lot of sports channels, timeshift, kids channels, news channels, music channels, ethnic channels, HD channels (500), etc are grouped together.
3. Go to Rogers - Saved - Scheduled - Down - Up - Series Priority. All your series are there and can be deleted, etc.
Would you please provide examples of programmes that will not provide a series recording for you. Also, please advise what you do to create the series - do you do a voice search, or via the guide on the TV (from the IgniteTV box) or via the Ignite TV app on a device, or via the browser link on a computer?
There should be no problem setting up a series recording by following the on-screen instructions on the various options listed above.

You should be able to select the programme in your scheduled recordings you wish deleted and click the "D" button on your remote and then confirming if you wish to delete one programme or the entire series.
Alternatively, after selecting the programme in the series you can hit the right arrow to go over to the (X) on the right side and then hit select to delete the programme or the series depending on which you wish to do.
Alternatively, you can use the app or browser to select/delete scheduled recordings.
If the programme is a "zombie" (not scheduled in the next 2 weeks) and is not in your scheduled recordings, you can follow the instructions in my previous post - link below:
@Kosty555 When you say "trying to delete a canceled show", do you mean trying to get rid of a cancelled recording, that appears with a 🚫 symbol under Scheduled Recordings? If so, I don't know any way to clear those. Those stay around until time passes when that scheduled recording would have occurred.
I really don't know why Ignite TV (or Comcast's Xfinity TV) does this but it's definitely something that they implemented deliberately.
One possible explanation is that they wanted to make it visible when one member of a household schedules a recording and another member deletes it.
A more likely possibility is to avoid a situation where restoring part of the PVR database from archives (to fix a problem or to recover lost data) causes a previously deleted recording to reappear in Scheduled recordings. That deleted recording marker (timestamped with a later date) would prevent this from happening.
